The Warehouse Collateral Manager shall review and verify the contents of the aforesaid reports, instructions, statements and certificates in a manner consistent with the standard of performance applicable to the Warehouse Collateral Manager under the Warehouse Collateral Management Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall not be interpreted to impose upon the Warehouse Collateral Manager any duties or obligations other than those expressly set forth in the Warehouse Collateral Management Agreement.

The Credits

SECTION 2.01.          Commitment . The Lenders agree to make Advances to the Borrower, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date other than a Business Day on which a Borrowing Base Deficiency has occurred and is continuing, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time that is up to, but not exceeding, the Borrowing Base, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. No Advance shall exceed the Available Facility Amount calculated immediately prior to giving effect to such Advance but calculated including all Advances that are expected to be made to fund Warehouse Assets that have been purchased but have not settled. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Advances. If and to the extent that there are multiple Lenders during the term of this Agreement, the relative Commitments of each such Lender shall be set forth in the assignment and assumption agreement relating to the assignment of the applicable existing Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder to the new Lender. In any event, the Commitments of the Lenders shall be several and not joint, no Lender shall have any duty whatsoever to make an Advance on behalf of any other Lender and the Administrative Agent shall have no duty whatsoever to make any Advance on behalf of any Lender.

SECTION 2.02.          Advances . Each Advance shall be in an aggregate amount that is not less than $250,000.

SECTION 2.03.          Requests for Borrowings; Authorization of Purchases . (a) The Warehouse Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, shall provide to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Lender and the Borrower) a notice by email in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto (together with any attachments required in connection therewith, an “ Approval Request ”).

The Administrative Agent shall have the right to approve or reject any Approval Request in its sole discretion and to request additional information regarding any proposed Warehouse Asset. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Warehouse Collateral Manager, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower in writing (including via email) whether each Approval Request has been approved or rejected by delivering to Borrower a notice in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto (together with any attachments required in connection therewith, an “ Approval Notice ”). Any approval may be withdrawn at any time prior to the time at which the Borrower actually becomes obligated to purchase or enter into documents governing such proposed Warehouse Asset by written notice (including via e-mail) of such withdrawal from the Administrative Agent to the Warehouse Collateral Manager. If the Administrative Agent has rejected an Approval Request, or withdrawn or withheld its approval of any such request, then the Borrower shall not be authorized to purchase such proposed Warehouse Asset. Such approval may take the form of a standing list of pre-approved assets containing the characteristics of each pre-approved asset specified in Exhibit A-1 (other than Purchase Price), together with a notice of intention to trade containing the par amount and purchase price of the Warehouse Asset(s) being acquired delivered on or prior to the Business Day preceding the proposed trade date.

(b)          On the date that any Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation is acquired by the Borrower, the acquisition of which was approved by the Administrative Agent and the terms of which require additional payments to be made by the Borrower after the acquisition thereof, an amount equal to such additional payments required to be made shall be deposited into the Reserve Account from amounts in the Custodial Account; provided that, to the extent such amounts in the Custodial Account are not sufficient to cover the full amount of the potential additional payments, the Borrower shall request that the Lenders make an Advance in the amount necessary to cover the full amount of the potential additional payments on the date that such Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation is acquired to be deposited into the Reserve Account (subject to the applicable dollar limitation set forth in the definition of the term Maximum Commitment). Such amounts shall be designated for the purpose of funding such additional payments and shall not be available for the purchase of any other Warehouse Assets. All amounts in the Reserve Account will be invested in Eligible Investments at the direction of the Warehouse Collateral Manager (or the Administrative Agent if an Event of Default has occurred). In the event no direction is received, the amounts in the Reserve Account shall remain uninvested. On the date that any additional payment is required to be made by the Borrower in connection with a Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation, amounts will be withdrawn from the Reserve Account without further consent of the Administrative Agent and applied to make such additional payment. In the event that any Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation is sold by the Borrower or the amount of potential additional payments in respect of a Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation is irrevocably reduced, an amount equal to the amount of the applicable reduction in the Borrower’s potential additional payment obligations with respect to such Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation will be transferred from the Reserve Account to the Custodial Account and treated as a prepayment of the applicable Warehouse Asset. If, at any time, the Administrative Agent determines that a Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation is no longer eligible for the CLO, the Borrower shall Liquidate such Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation in the manner set forth in Section 6.01(f) so as to minimize the number of additional payments the Borrower may be required to make with respect to such Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation following the Administrative Agent’s determination of the Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation’s ineligibility.

(c)          If the Warehouse Collateral Manager wishes to purchase a Warehouse Asset on behalf of the Borrower for which the Approval Request has been approved pursuant to clause (a) above with an Advance (including an Advance to be applied to the purchase of a Warehouse Asset constituting a Delayed Drawdown Debt Obligation and requiring the funding of such Advance to the Reserve Account pursuant to Section 2.03(b) ), the Warehouse Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower shall, prior to noon, New York City time, on the date of such proposed settlement (which shall be a Business Day), provide to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Borrower) a borrowing notice by email substantially in the form of Exhibit A-3 hereto (together with any attachments required in connection therewith, a “ Borrowing Request ”) relating to such proposed purchase; provided that, if such Borrowing Request is delivered later than noon on such Business Day, such Borrowing Request shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day. Each Borrowing Request shall include a statement with respect to each Warehouse Asset to which it relates indicating whether or not the seller of such Warehouse Asset is the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

SECTION 2.04.          Funding of Borrowings . Each Lender shall make each Advance to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof (which shall be a Business Day) by wire transfer of immediately available funds by (i) if the related Approval Request was delivered at least one Business Day prior to such date, 2:00 p.m., New York City time, and (ii) if the related Approval Request was delivered on such date, no later than the close of business on such date to the Custodial Account of the Borrower (or the Reserve Account, as applicable).

SECTION 2.05.          Termination of Commitment . The Commitment shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date.

SECTION 2.06.          Repayment of Obligations; Evidence of Debt . (a)  The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to repay all Obligations on the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) any other day upon which they become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents.

(b)          Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from (i) each Advance made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder and (ii) in the case of the initial Lender, the amount of the Startup Expenses payable to MS&Co. and any other amounts payable to MS&Co. as described under the Engagement Letter and agreed to by the Borrower in definitive documentation relating to the CLO.

(c)          The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.06(b) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents and the Startup Expenses and any other amounts payable to MS&Co. as and to the extent described under the Engagement Letter and agreed to by the Borrower in definitive documentation relating to the CLO.

SECTION 2.07.          Prepayment of Advances .

(a)          The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the principal amount of any Advance, in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with Section 2.07(b) ; provided , that, any principal amount to be prepaid hereunder shall be equal to or greater than $500,000 and Advances shall be prepaid commencing with the longest outstanding Advance and ending with the most recent Advance. On any date on which an Advance is prepaid in accordance with the preceding sentence (each such date, a “ Prepayment Date ”), the Borrower shall, by applying solely Interest Proceeds it has received in respect of the Pledged Assets prior to such Prepayment Date or contributed amounts, pay any interest accrued in accordance with Section 2.08 in respect of the principal amount of any Advance being prepaid.

(b)          The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Collateral Agent, by email of each prepayment under this Section 2.07 not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent) before the related Prepayment Date. Each such notice shall specify the Prepayment Date, the principal amount of each Advance or portion thereof to be prepaid and the amount of interest to be paid with respect to each such Advance.

(c)          In addition, the Advances shall be repaid in the manner set forth in the Security Agreement.

SECTION 2.08.          Interest . (a)  Each Advance shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate plus (x) with respect to any day during the period from and including the Warehouse Closing Date to, but excluding, the last day of the Revolving Period, 1.90% per annum and (y) with respect to any day thereafter, 2.15% per annum, in each case, for each day that such Advance is outstanding.

(b)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there are insufficient funds available in the Custodial Account to pay any interest on any Advance or any other amounts on any Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date), then such amount shall not be then due and payable (and no Event of Default shall occur due to such failure to pay) and shall be deferred and bear interest, at a rate per annum equal to the rate otherwise applicable to such Advance as provided in the preceding paragraph. All accrued and unpaid interest on Advances shall be due and payable on the earlier of the first Interest Payment Date on which sufficient funds are available in the Custodial Account to pay such interest and the Maturity Date.

(c)          Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) above, if any principal of or interest on any Advance or any fee payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest, at a rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Advance as provided in clause (a) above.

(d)          Subject to clause (b) above, accrued interest on each Advance shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Advance and, with respect to prepayments made in accordance with Section 2.07 , upon the date of such prepayment; provided , that, interest accrued pursuant to clause (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a Warehouse Asset is purchased with accrued interest, commitment fee or any other fees thereon, the Borrower shall nevertheless apply all amounts it receives in respect of interest, commitment fees and any other fees from such Warehouse Asset in accordance with Article VI of the Security Agreement.

(e)          All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days in such period.

SECTION 2.09.          Borrowing Base Deficiency Payments .

(a)          In addition to any other obligation of the Borrower to cure any Borrowing Base Deficiency pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, if, on any day prior to the date on which the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances outstanding have been repaid in full and all other Obligations have been paid in full, any Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then the Borrower shall eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency in its entirety within three (3) Business Days of the earlier of (x) the Borrower acquiring knowledge of such Borrowing Base Deficiency and (y) the Borrower receiving written notice from the Administrative Agent of such Borrowing Base Deficiency by effecting one or more (or any combination thereof) of the following actions in order to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency as of such date of determination: (i) deposit cash in U.S. dollars as principal collections in the Custodial Account (or any subaccount thereof), (ii) repay Advances outstanding and/or (iii) subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, Grant additional Warehouse Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency using any combination of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.

(b)          No later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day prior to the proposed repayment of Advances outstanding or Grant of additional Warehouse Assets pursuant to Section 2.09(a) , the Borrower (or the Warehouse Collateral Manager on its behalf) shall deliver (i) to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) notice of such repayment or Grant and a duly completed Borrowing Base Certificate, updated to the date such repayment or Grant is being made and giving pro forma effect to such repayment or Grant, and (ii) to the Administrative Agent, if applicable, a description of any Warehouse Asset and each Obligor of such Warehouse Asset to be Granted and an updated Warehouse Asset Schedule. Any notice pertaining to any repayment or any Grant pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable.

SECTION 2.10.          Payments .

(a)          Any and all payments made by the Borrower under the Credit Documents shall be made in U.S. dollars. Each party hereto agrees that the Available Amount and all such other amounts described in Article VI of the Security Agreement shall be applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Article VI of the Security Agreement and otherwise in accordance with the Credit Documents. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby instruct the Collateral Agent to apply the Available Amount and all such other amounts described in Article VI of the Security Agreement in accordance with Article VI of the Security Agreement and otherwise in accordance with the Credit Documents.

SECTION 2.11.          Increased Costs .

(a)          Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBO Rate:

(i)          the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that quotations of rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01 hereof are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining the interest rate for Advances as provided herein;

(ii)         the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that the relevant rate referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in Section 1.01 hereof upon the basis of which the interest rate for Advances is to be determined is not likely to adequately cover the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining Advances; or

(iii)        it becomes unlawful for any Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain Advances hereunder using a LIBO Rate;

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower (and the Warehouse Collateral Manager) prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Borrower shall either pay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances then outstanding or pay additional interest on the Advances at a rate per annum equal to the floating rate index which the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be generally applicable to secured financings and/or collateralized loan transactions paying interest based on 1-month LIBOR on the relevant date of determination plus the spread over the LIBO Rate set forth in Section 2.08(a) hereof.

SECTION 2.12.          Taxes .

(a)          Except as otherwise required by law or in connection with FATCA, all payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (“ Taxes ”). If any such Taxes other than Excluded Taxes (“ Non-Excluded Taxes ”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable hereunder, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any deduction or withholding on account of such Non-Excluded Taxes has been made the amount received equals an amount equal to the sum the recipient would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. The Borrower shall pay all Borrower Tax Obligations. As promptly as practicable after the payment of any Borrower Tax Obligation by the Borrower, the Borrower shall, if available, furnish to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent a copy of an official receipt (or a certified copy thereof) evidencing the payment of such Borrower Tax Obligation. The Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any Borrower Tax Obligation levied, imposed or assessed on (and whether or not paid directly by) the Lenders whether or not such Borrower Tax Obligation is correctly or properly asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, promptly upon notice thereof by any Lender. In addition, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after written demand by a Lender, indemnify the Lenders for any incremental taxes that may become payable by a Lender as a result of any failure of the Borrower to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Borrower Tax Obligations, when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or to deliver to such Lender documentation evidencing the payment of the Borrower Tax Obligations in accordance with this Section 2.12(a) .

(b)          If a Lender shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund or credit from a Governmental Authority in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes or Borrower Tax Obligations as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.12 , it shall notify the Borrower of the availability of such refund claim or credit and shall make a claim as soon as practicable to such Governmental Authority for such refund or credit at the Borrower’s expense. If a Lender receives a refund (including pursuant to a claim for refund made pursuant to the preceding sentence) or credit in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Borrower Tax Obligations as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.12 , it shall within thirty (30) days from the date of such receipt pay over the amount of such refund or credit to the Borrower, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of a Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus penalties, interest or other reasonable charges) to that Lender in the event the Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

(c)          If a Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, it shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time reasonably requested by the Borrower (with a copy to the Collateral Agent), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender. Notwithstanding the above, (i) any Lender that is a U.S. person under the Code shall deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax, (ii) any Lender that is not a U.S. person under the Code shall deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent), any of the following: (A) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party; (B) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; or (C)(x) a certificate to the effect that such person is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax (including any other applicable attachments, (iii) any Lender that is not a U.S. person under the Code shall, at the request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent, and to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such person becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, and (iv) each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall provide any information that is requested by the Borrower in connection with FATCA.

(d)          Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.12(a) with respect to itself, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Advances affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided , further , that nothing in this Section 2.12(d) shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a) .

(e)          Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.12 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)           If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.12(f) , “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g)          Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.12 shall survive the payment of all the Borrower’s obligations to the Lenders under the Credit Documents and termination of the Credit Documents.

SECTION 2.13.          Discretionary Sales .

(b)          The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Credit Documents.

(i)           As promptly as possible after the Warehouse Closing Date, and in any event no later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, the Collateral Agent shall create a database (the “ Collateral Database ”) with respect to the Warehouse Assets held by the Borrower on the Warehouse Closing Date, which Collateral Database shall include all information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Warehouse Assets and the Collateral, on an individual Warehouse Asset basis and on a portfolio basis, and shall be based upon information provided by the Warehouse Collateral Manager and other third parties.

Upon receipt of such report, each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Warehouse Collateral Manager shall indicate their respective approvals of such report or identify any discrepancy. In the event of any discrepancy between the information set forth in such report provided by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Warehouse Collateral Manager and any information contained in the books, records or reports of Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Warehouse Collateral Manager, such party shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and the parties shall cooperate to resolve the discrepancy.

The Collateral Agent shall provide a daily report (which may be consolidated with the daily report described above and in Section 1.05(c) ) to the Warehouse Collateral Manager, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in an electronic format and in scope mutually acceptable to the Collateral Agent, the Warehouse Collateral Manager, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, that summarizes the material information contained in the Collateral Database, including, without limitation, the test results of the Concentration Limits (and details thereof), the outstanding principal balance of the Collateral and balances of the Custodial Account and Reserve Account. The Collateral Agent shall update the Collateral Database promptly for Warehouse Assets acquired or sold or otherwise disposed of and for any amendments or changes to Warehouse Asset amounts or interest rates, in each case based upon information and data received from the Borrower, the Warehouse Collateral Manager, or the related bank agent, obligor, or financial information reporting or other third-party sources.

(l)           The Collateral Agent shall provide the Warehouse Collateral Manager with such other information as may be reasonably requested in writing by the Warehouse Collateral Manager and as is within the possession of the Collateral Agent.

(m)         Nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Agent to (i) determine independently the correct characterization or categorization of any item of Collateral, or to evaluate or verify the Warehouse Collateral Manager’s characterization of any item of Collateral or (ii) determine the Borrowing Base or whether a Borrowing Base Deficiency or Value Adjustment Event has occurred, any such determination being based exclusively upon notification the Collateral Agent receives from the Warehouse Collateral Manager and nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Agent to review or examine any underlying instrument or contract evidencing, governing or guaranteeing or securing any Warehouse Asset in order to verify, confirm, audit or otherwise determine any characteristic thereof. For purposes of monitoring changes in ratings, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to use and rely (in good faith) exclusively upon one or more reputable electronic financial information reporting services, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracies in the information reported by, or other errors or omissions of, any such services.

(b)          Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; provided that no amendment shall be effective without the prior consent of, if such amendment affects the rights, liabilities, duties or responsibilities of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 10.03.          Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver . Subject always to Section 10.11: (a) The Borrower shall pay all out-of-pocket expenses (other than, in the case of the Lenders, Taxes, which are exclusively addressed in Section 2.12) incurred by the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Administrative Agent or any Lender for which the party incurring such expense shall have provided notice to the Borrower, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Collateral Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Administrative Agent or any Lender for which the party incurring such expense shall have provided notice to the Borrower, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with any Credit Document, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Advances made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Advances.

(b)          The Borrower shall indemnify the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Warehouse Collateral Manager and the Lenders, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “ Indemnitee ”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (“ Losses ”), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the negotiation, execution or delivery of the Credit Documents, any amendment thereof or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations or the exercise of the parties thereto of their respective rights or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Advance or the use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c)          To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the Credit Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated by any Credit Document, the Transactions, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(d)          All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on the Maturity Date.

(e)          The Securities Intermediary is an intended third party beneficiary of this Section 10.03 .

(c)          (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (c)(ii) below, any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or of any other Person, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it) to an Affiliate. Except as permitted in the preceding sentence, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default no Lender may otherwise assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Warehouse Collateral Manager, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(ii)         Assignments pursuant to this Section 10.04(c) shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(C)        the assignee and the Lender shall execute and deliver an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form of Schedule 3 .

(iii)        From and after the effective date specified in each assignment and assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such assignment and assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such assignment and assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an assignment and assumption covering all of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.03 ); provided , that no assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Section 2.12(a) than that to which the assignor would have been entitled to receive had no such assignment occurred.

(iv)        The Administrative Agent, as agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each assignment and assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “ Register ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the parties hereto shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Lender and the Warehouse Collateral Manager, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon its receipt of a duly completed assignment and assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment and assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register.

(d)          Any Lender may, without the consent of the Warehouse Collateral Manager or any other Person sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “ Participant ”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advance owing to it) or enter into a derivative or similar transaction having an effect similar to a participation. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under this Agreement (the “ Participant Register ”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitment, Advance or its other obligations) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Advance or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (in their respective capacities as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)          Each Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of the Lender, and this Section 10.04(e) shall not apply to or limit any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 10.05.          Survival . All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Equity Investors herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Advances, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or a Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Advance or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid. The provisions of Sections 2.12, 10.03 and 10.11 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Advances, the expiration or termination of the Commitment, the resignation or removal of the Collateral Agent, Securities Intermediary or Administrative Agent, or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.06.          Counterparts; Effectiveness . This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.07.          Severability .

(b) An “ Average Par Amount ” is calculated by summing the Obligor Par Amounts for all Obligors, and dividing by the aggregate number of Obligors.

(c) An “ Equivalent Unit Score ” is calculated for each Obligor, and is equal to the lesser of (a) one and (b) the Obligor Par Amount for such Obligor divided by the Average Par Amount.

(d) An “ Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score ” is then calculated for each S&P Industry Classification and is equal to the sum of the Equivalent Unit Scores for each Obligor in such S&P Industry Classification.

(e) An “ Industry Diversity Score ” is then established for each S&P Industry Classification by reference to the following table for the related Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score; provided , that if any Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score falls between any two such scores, the applicable Industry Diversity Score will be the lower of the two Industry Diversity Scores:
